1.0 out of 5 stars Take the information in this book with a grain of salt, October 1, 2000
By A Customer
TERRIBLE!!!Too many mistakes.Mr Hurd don't know the first thing about a correct Chevelle restoration.Too bad its the only Chevelle restoration book available.Stick to assembly manuals and original dealer books for your best source of information.This book don't cut it!!

3.0 out of 5 stars What a mess!, December 14, 1999
By Jorge Urcaregui Placer (Valladolid, Valladolid Spain) - See all my reviews
The book is a bunch of notes without comprehensive organization. Models like '69 are insuficiently covered (but nice if you have a '71). This book can give you a hand but is very very limited.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good SS specific information for each year, June 29, 1998
This book goes to great lengths to explain what is correct and incorrect about many of the parts of your SS Chevelle. It is intended for the restorer who is trying to put the correct shift knob, master cylinder, or hub cap on his or her Chevelle. As it explains each part, it lists the part number. Many of these part numbers will no longer do you any good at the Chevy dealer, but it will help you determine if the parts you have are correct and possibly help you find used ones.

It has a lot of diagrams and pictures which will help you to reassemble your car correctly.

I talks a lot about the correct color of various parts, especially under the hood. Despite the fact that coloration is very important to restorers, all photos are in black and white.
